RE: There must be bodies everywhere.

There has not been accurate data on how many people actually died from Covid-19 in China.

And there won’t be. They aren’t going to have accurate data on Chinese state TV either. What’s important for them is not how many have died. What’s important for them is what numbers can be reported which minimize the damage to the Party and keep everyone in line. Numbers too low and nobody believes them and start asking a bunch of questions. Numbers too high and everyone loses confidence in the Party’s ability to effectively manage the country. So the Party will report the number that they determine puts them in the best possible light.

That’s all you’ll hear out of China.

The publication of accurate numbers assumes that accurate data can be collected.

I doubt that the China public health institutions have the ability to collect detain a meaningful manner

BTW....... these guys do good job of China reporting
